Fig- 45- pails are to be used, 1 would divide the house by a partition, giv- ing two rooms 11x12 and 7x12 respectively. The pool should be placed at one side of the large room, and be 17 inches deep, and divided into four compartments, so that when a mess of warm milk is put in, it will not warm up the cold milk. The whole pool may occupy 9 feet by 12, and be made either of cement or plank. The water should be admitted by a pipe with a faucet for each compartment of the pool, so as to regulate the flow of water to secure the right temper- ature. The other apartment may be used for a churn room. The diagram will show the general idea. A, is the ante-room ; B B, doors; C, churning room ; D, folding doors; E, passage to the pools; F F, pools. A correspondent of the Cincinnati Gazette, gives the following, which is a very good way of constructing a milk room, where shallow setting is used without water or ice: Lay up a foundation with good hard burnt bricks, or with stones, a thirteen inch wall. On this set a frame, say of five inch studding. After siding up, ceil on the inside, and fill in with charcoal. Overhead have a flooring and ceiling beneath the joists, putting charcoal between. This is a non-conductor of heat and also a good absorbent of foul air. Have doors on one end and on each side ; at least two-thirds the distance back from the door, put windows with sash hung at top, to be hooked up to ceiling. Get wire gauze, paint it, and tack over each window to.
